Destinations >> Mexico >> Huatulco

 When anxious, uneasy and bad thoughts come, I go to the sea, and the sea drowns them out with its great wide sounds, cleanses me with its noise and imposes a rhythm upon everything in me that is bewildered and confused.  - Rainer Maria Rilke

The Nine Sparkling Bays of Huatulco
Huatulco known for its fabulous nine azure blue bays, which follow along a 12 mile stretch of coastline, is located in the state of Oaxaca. Huatulco weather, both balmy, but warm and not overly hot for the beach makes it ideal for those strolls on the beach. Between each of the bays are wonderful sights of jutting rocky cliffs with waves of azure water smashing up against the rocks.  A few miles inland huge hardwood trees grow side by side creating a continuous carpet of forest that flow into the Sierra (the mountainous region).  Learn More

Huatulco real estate & History

altHuatulco weather is milder compared to other beach areas, with temperatures that remain at around 90 degrees Fahrenheit year round. The Huatulco bays contrary to the open ocean are calm, caressing waters that caress fine corral sand.

The Greener the Better!
People flock here to buy Huatulco real estate because of the weather, but ecologists hate to think of  another great natural wonder being exploited and over developed. The Mexican government on the other hand, doesn’t plan on developing the natural wonder of Huatulco, but areas that are inland. There are currently a few homes and upscale hotels located on the bays themselves though.

Plans are to make the nine bays of Huatulco with its 100,000 acres of forest, both an ecological and tourist paradise. The plans are to finish this development in 2020.

The Allure of Oaxaca for Snowbirds about Oaxaca

 
By: Alvin Starkman at Ventana Magazine
Oaxaca has two main advantages over other southern destinations for snowbirds. First, you can explore one of the most culturally rich regions in Latin America, and then, if the mood strikes, hop a plane, and in 35 minutes be relaxing on a sandy beach sipping margaritas. Second, there is enough of an expat presence in the city to enable a vacationer to spend part of the time with other Anglophones if inclined, and the balance with native Mexicans.

Oaxaca is one of Mexico’s southernmost states. Its capital, the city of Oaxaca, has a population upwards of 400,000, brimming with Old World charm. A UNESCO world heritage site, the city and central valleys are filled with pre-Hispanic ruins, 16th century churches, colorful market towns and craft villages, art galleries and museums, and renowned cuisine. In 2006, Oaxaca was named one of the ten most important travel destinations worldwide.
 
Visiting the City
Begin a visit by spending a couple of days downtown wandering the zocalo, the city’s central square, which is lined with outdoor cafés and balconied restaurants. There, you’ll soak up the live music of mariachis, marimbas and Latin dance bands. From the street vendors, you’ll preview the array of local crafts you’ll have an opportunity to purchase in the villages. Marvel at the exquisite colonial architecture, with it centuries-old artistic wrought ironwork and green limestone block construction.
